Procedure (34-55 minutes)

Lead-in (5-8 minutes) • To set lesson context and engage students

I will set up the situation, personalize the topic, present some pictures of my house and brother's house, then a photo of two kitchens to let them get to know what is some/any/ a lot of means

Presenting (5-8 minutes) • To provide context for the target language through a text or situation

- I will use the pictures about the two kitchens and give them something like a story and use " Some/ any/ a lot of"
-There will be occasional writing of the forms that I want to highlight and work on it.
- then I will highlight the new form to let them figure out that we use plural after them and let them the meaning of them
- Ask CCQs to make sure they understand the new language.

Controlled practice (5-8 minutes) • to make sure the students understand the new language

- I will give the students a handout where there are some sentences have some mistakes and let them know that each sentence has only one mistake. The time limit for that three minutes.
- Ask students to work in pairs to decide where is the mistake, and then give the correct answer.
- I will check the answer with the whole class and if there are any different answers we will discuss them.

Production (5-8 minutes) • to let the students use the new language in a context

Divide the students into two groups ( blue and green) and give them cards with some items on it
-Present a picture of another kitchen.
- Let them ask about the items they have on cards the other group. the other group has to answer.
-they will take turns until they finish the cards.

Presenting (5-8 minutes) • To provide context for the target language through a text or situation

- I will use colored cards stick them on the board. sometimes just single card other times two cards.
- I come closer to the cards and point to them saying that " these are cards" then go to just one card and point saying that " this is a card"
- Move and from a distance, I point to the card saying that " that is a card" and the same for the two cards saying " those are cards"
- Write on the board the new language that I want to highlight.
- Ask CCQs to make sure they understand the new language
- Mention the color of the card and stand in different position, to let them be more familiar with it e.g. I mention the red card and point to it from a distance they should say " that is a red card"

Controlled practice (3-5 minutes) • To concept check and prepare students for more meaningful practice

- The students will have in this handout an exercise with pictures and they need to complete by one of (This/that/these/those) depending on what they see in the picture if the speaker points to something and it is close, so they will complete this, and so on.
-The students will do the activity first individually then they check answers in pairs.The teacher will provide an answer key and let them check their answers.

Semi-controlled practice (3-5 minutes) • To concept check further and prepare students for free practice

- I will divide the students into two groups again, they will be standing in two lines, each time there is a different person at the beginning of the line. they should take turns
ask them to look at the board when a sentence appears they should point to what is in the slide depending on it is close or they need to point from a distance. the winner who will take the action first and do it correctly

Practice (3-5 minutes) • To provide students with freer practice of the target language

- I will ask students to come up with two things and point to them according to how far or close that/ this thing.
-The students should come up with sentences like " this is my pen" " these are my shoes" " this is my T-shirt"
